    how to understand Al Brooks

    I will say this: If you catch a trend, those H1's and H2's and H3's will keep you trading in the right direction on that 5 minute interval. It would seem if you take just that and the trend line advice from Brooks someone would do pretty well on the ES.

    Breathtaking. I closed out when the reaction off 58.75 was so slight. Had I had access to a chart I would like to think I would have jumped in long for a 10 point trade. 2670 should be the line between a e-test of 2718.50 and a reversal to lower lows. But who am I to judge as I've been a bit...

    Short 52.75 stop is 10 points but won't let it go that far against me. Have a few limit orders above to add if I am lucky enough to get them (55.50 and 58.50). EDIT: I hate the timing of this entry in terms of the time of week and time of day. I am going to be on the road soon and won't be...

    cash traded its 2656 so I'm looking to short if PA gives it to me.

    I have FF on ignore, but I imagine that your reply must be in response to him. I knew he'd be by soon. He just can't help himself, which is sad. Because if he won't help himself, how is anyone else to help him?

    Closing in on what to me is a projected top close to ES 2656. I do think that is ES > 2670, then something else is happening.

    Something like that would never work on a consistent basis. You'll see, FF will be by to tell us so soon.

    OK, this WD Ganns fellow

    You are way too emotional to be lecturing anyone on logic. You are a careless reader, FF. You need to slow down and think before you post(speak). I doubt you have it in you. As someone with an agenda, you obviously judge others as operating from a similar, agenda driven perspective. Any...

    If you take yesterday's rally and figure that we are going to get a measured move based on that rally from today's low, it takes the ES to 2656 +/- a tick or two before we get that sort of reversal. No sure thing, but happens often enough to keep in your pocket.

    I didn't say I did. But I don't think that we necessarily ought to conclude that he didn't have success in the market based upon what his son had to say. Perhaps his son had his own reasons for wanting to discount his father's market writings. I do exercise critical judgement. But you...

    Sons rarely know the whole story of where the father's money comes from when the father is one who makes his own way in the world as Gann did. And it wasn't Gann who claimed for himself a $50 million dollar fortune, but latter day software vendors attempting to craft a mythology from which to...

    I still expect rally to the 2658.50 +/- before the next leg down. I still expect another leg down. But we each have to trade what we see.

    I cannot speak to Gann's work. Test that 50% retracement idea, @Saltynuts. You'll be glad you did.

    o_O I don't believe it. Why don't you backtest it and forward test it in the market you trade and see how it fairs?

    I believe that the market is set up to squeeze once more to that 2658 level and then the resolution comes in the form of a another swift downtrend not unlike the January-February swoon. Short sellers who establish shorts in the mid-2650's should have a good year next week. There will be a lot...

    Then I might be swapping places with you lol. As far as this short goes, right here 3:48 is pushing it for me to be in such a new position. Looking for a quick flush into the close or bust - by bust my stop is now breakeven at 28
